youth parliament, for heaven sakes.

the british government can and may well over write the wishes of the scottish parliament on this matter that is a consequence of scott that not being an independent country is precisely why we want the powers of a normal country to be able to decide these matters for ourselves but if they do override it and are and show contempt to the views of those elected parliaments in the nations of the u.k. then i think they jeopardize the settlement itself and that such stage the scottish people will be given an opportunity as to whether the settlement that the government is because eating a bricks it is the united kingdom they wish to remain part of or whether they would prepare to take back control and negotiate matters for themselves it was so robust you see in the circumstances of the national assembly in wills the scottish parliament saying no to hard but you might have the cost of the the house the logs we look for a sense wherever we may find it and with whatever organisations we may find it but publish up and believe that this is government's night. and robert barnes the void of the commo

my strong view is theyicide be determined by national parliament and governments. but equally strong is my view that corporationsici s should p their fair share of tax. and that's true -- that's true for american tech companies as it is true for european car manufacturers and international aerospace and defense companies. ireland has already taken steps to close loopholes in our tax laws and we'll do more in the years ahead but we strongly believe this should be done on an international basis as europe should not give advantages to our competitors on other continents by acting unilaterally. mr. president, as a community, we must also look outwards, offering leadership and partnership, especially with had it comes to africa. and i believe that europe must show much greater leadership on africa and i support the idea of an eu marshal plan for that continent. we've already witnessed the terrible impact that chaos in syria and lebanon as had on people in those countries and its impact on europe. libya and syria are small countries. imagine what would happen if similar

i'm a member of parliament from london. first i'd like to dedicate this speech to a very close friend of mine who sadly died a month ago. when i campaigned just a year ago, i received very strong backing from a number of communities. i met a lot of young people. there was this young person in particular. he wanted to speak to me. he said to me specifically that he was being bullied at school. why? because he was kurdish. a lot of kurdish families in my constituency came here as a result from fleeing iraq or their country such as saddam hussein. he was being targeted at school. he was being bullied, attacked constantly, every single day. i know this topic means a lot to a lot of young people, but in my constituency this topic was voted the least. i think it's much more relevant if we cover a much broader spectrum of issues this would help all young people. thank you.

i am very glad i didn't miss this parliament. it can be chaotic, extraordinary, you may gather, i get pretty brassed off with some of the things going on in british politics. the sillier nonsense at the moment. actually, this parliament is going to decide some more important questions about the future of this country and the well—being of future generations than practically any i served in. ken clark, thank you for coming on hardtalk. hello. friday will be the coldest day of the week, but with lighter winds, most of us seeing some sunshine at some stage of the day. 0ur perception may well be, as we are in between weather systems with lots of dry weather, it's the most pleasant weather day of the week but weather fronts are coming in for the weekend as we will show you in a moment. this is how it looks for early risers. a few showers dotted about through parts of england and wales. and cold enough for a touch of frost where you've been clear for any period of time overnight, particularly across parts of scotland, into northern i

well that said the first session of this new parliament has now concluded and what the members of parliament did achieve was to elect the new parliamentary speaker now that is a key position because it is essentially him who will now set the political agenda moving forward asked was widely expected to be a coalition of separatist parties impose their will and surf ective lead they are in the driving seat once again going into this new parliamentary session that is something that won't sit well with spanish prime minister mariano rajoy don't forget the back in december it was a whore used emergency powers to call new elections for the kaplan parliament hoping to change the balance of power here in parliament and in the political crisis which has been sparked by catalonia is bid to break away from the rest of spain but it was no only business today there was also some colorful scenes as well one of those was of course looking around the parliamentary arena there and you could see a number of the yellow ribbons placed in empty seats that was to symbolize those politicians a handful of whom are

what we have called for is a meaningful vote on parliament —— in parliament, and thatis parliament —— in parliament, and that is the one area that i think parliament has asserted itself, just in the boat before christmas.|j parliament has asserted itself, just in the boat before christmas. ijust wa nt to in the boat before christmas. ijust want to point out you that when you are talking very much in the present tense at the moment, you are saying that we are not supporting a second referendum. you are not saying we would support a second referendum. we are not calling for one either. so, jeremy gordon refusing to rule out, perhaps, in the future, labour coming round to that idea of supporting a second referendum but also talking this morning about labour's position on the single market. that has caused some divisions within his own party. it has also led to nicola sturgeon colin firth labour to come out and back staying in the single market, which she believes is the best solution for scotland. she said she believes there is a parliamentary majority of staying in the single market. je

this is the uk parliament for heaven sakes. we must think about what kind of message we are sending out to people pretending that it's served the majesties treasury and they can't have a say on how to spend those taxes. we are telling 16-year-olds they are welcome to serve in the military but they cannot have a say on what kind of country they are sacrificing their lives for whagore to choose the politicias that will send them to the war. that is a great injustice and the government is so determined to fighting this and to build a country than this is their opportunity, it is our opportunity. let's embrace it. thank you.

will sammy the bell has gone and now being elected and members of parliament to the catalan parliament are beginning to take their seats for the opening session of the new parliament and from the outset this session is likely to turn to control of a seat remember that when the spanish prime minister mariano hoare using special powers called elections to the capital on parliament back in december he was hoping to change the balance of power in parliament and effectively end the cattle and crisis the effort by separatist politicians to break away from the rest of spain now that gamble did not pay off because right now separatist party still retain an absolute and controlling majority in the capital and parliament so this is likely really the opening of parliament today is really also likely to open a new chapter in what is already spain's biggest political crisis in the last forty years setting the spanish central government against the regional government of catalonia you also see in some of the pictures that we're seeing from inside the parliamentary session a number of yellow ribbons

as a youth parliament. and i think it's one you should support.

the solidarity of the parliament has been matched by the commission and council. i would like to thank president also to the council president. the european union has consistently recognized the unique position of northern ireland, and the unique situation in which it finds itself given the decision of the united kingdom to leave the european union. a decision we respect. that, thending majority of people in northern ireland voted to remain in the european union. the majority of the representatives elected to the ireland assembly want to remain in the custom union and single market. it is likely the majority of people living in northern ireland will remain european citizens after brexit because of the unique status under the good friday agreements, which allows them to be british citizens, hirer citizens or both -- irish citizens or both. the breakthrough achieved before christmas means the united kingdom is guaranteed that whatever the future relationship with the european union, a hard border on the island will be avoided. the common travel area and all associat

well now sammy the first session of the new cattle parliament has now ended members of parliament have headed out but not before of course fulfilling the first main task and that was to choose the new parliamentary speaker and the seven person in the leadership body of the parliament now the reason why the parliamentary speaker is such a key position a strategically key position is because it will be him who decides the future order of the day the future procedures essentially say the political agenda and in this case asked was widely expected the separatist majority has imposed their candidate asked parliamentary speaker so that means that once again the capital and parliament could be on a collision course with spain's central government over this issue of catalonia trying to break away from the rest of spain to set up an independent republic let's take a look at some of the background. so far the chance of freedom for the prisoners have been in the ward as catalonia is polman to be opened handful of elected support is politicians remain in jail others fled abroad we've these demonst

parliament was banned from twitter anyone who was against third world for a place that migration as he puts it is an extremist neo nazi to even suggest that greece is for the greeks is the big streamed by the corporate media and globalist shills this is actually on the internet not directly to the stream but this is a concept that's out there what do you make of what he's saying a person that is also and that's why i think one of them maybe this question is. directly related to. the goals and. because i mean if it's as if it's found. in addition to me. i think everything you know. i mean the. expression is only one of. us but anything in any case you know cleaning up i mean. and may face these may not be excused especially when you. do the seismic. so what have we. it's not very easy. to you know. it's hard to judge but i think that's why. you know the outcome of this trial very very of the sciences. do you feel that the team is very briefly right the end of the year that with the end of golden dawn that's done then we're done with it depends on how the forensics. how you know and the

parliament alone is sovereign! and parliament was given that very vote a few weeks later. the ayes to the right, 494. the noes to the left, 122. hear, hear! an historic vote today. and it got through by a large majority at every turn. it has carried out the will of the british people. the stage was set, then, and on 29th march, article 50 was triggered. this is an historic moment from which there can be no turning back. and all it took was a short letter delivered by hand to brussels, signed by theresa may — though you might not know it from that signature. so, here it is. six pages. we already miss you. thank you and goodbye. now it was time for the difficult bit to start — negotiating the terms. we were all doggedly talking about brexit, but other things happened, too. the conservative party candidate —13,748. in february, the tories won the copeland by—election — the first such win by a government party over its opposition in 35 years, and in a place that had been labour since 1935. on the same night, labour held onto their stoke—on—trent seat... you going

something which you can get through british parliament. and this is where it is different from article 50 vote, we could be in a situation where you are voting against the government, your own government, that is effectively a vote of no—confidence. if others vote as you would want them to, the government could fall. i wonder if you are in a situation where you are more fearful of leaving the eu under certain terms than you are of a labour government and jeremy corbyn? it will not bring the government down. i voted against the government several times already. and i voted with the government more times than against it on european issues. nobody notices that. could theresa may... it would be difficult then unless she couldn't then negotiate a revision to the deal which would enable us to continue. it all depends on the circumstances at the time which no—one can foresee. we now have a five year fixed term parliament act. we have a conservative mps... the only thing that all agree on is that they won an election. someone has to try to tur
